The Voice of Midnight   By Slaid Cleaves

(Intro)
E  C#m  A   B

E
Dont want to go too soon
                       C#m
Dont want to stay too long
                                    A
Dont want to go too quick into the night
                     B
Dont want to linger on and on

Dont want to leave you a mess
Dont want to cause a fuss
Roll me into the hole
Cover me up

A
Id like to know when its comin
              E       C#m
Just a little time to prepare
                  E
When the voice of midnight comes
          A
And into oblivion I stare

E
Theres no one waitin on me
             C#m
No heaven or hell
               A
The only vow I make
                     B
To live true and die well

And when Im gone, Im gone
Youll hear my name in the wind
Up to the great beyond
Back to where we begin

A
Will I hold onto the courage
       E                    C#m
To say goodbye to a life so dear
                  E
When the voice of midnight comes
             A
Will grace overcome fear

(Bridge)
       A
I was born under a lucky star
        C#m
And Im thankful every day
       B
And I know in the blink of an eye
         A                Asus2
It will all be taken away

(Interlude)
E     C#m  A   B
E     C#m  A   B

E
Maybe an open field
                    C#m
Under the stars and moon
                                    E
With the smell of the land and the air
                      A
And not some hospital room

Ill take my comfort in song
To the bittersweet end
And then Ill take my leave
Safe in the memory of friends

A
Id like to know when its comin
              E       C#m
Just a little time to prepare
                  E
When the voice of midnight comes
         A           Asus2
I hope youll be there
